This psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 12th day of January, 1940, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [2076], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., through her mother, Mrs. […], recommended by a friend from Louisville, Ky.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 4:00 to 4:10 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Georgia.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. Now, as we find, there are disturbing forces which prevent the better physical reactions. These are rather a complication of conditions, affecting the glandular system AND the nervous systems of the body.

4. A great deal of the distresses arise from the attitudes of the body, causing the general nervous racking of the body, with a glandular disturbance that becomes more acute in its reaction with such conditions.

5. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2076].

6. The blood supply indicates the lack of the proper assimilation through the inability of the glandular forces to supply the necessary influences for the correct manner or way of distribution of that which is assimilated through the system.

7. This causes the conditions in the quickening of the blood supply, or the pulsation in the blood supply, and the inclinations for the disturbances through the superficial circulation, - as indicated through conditions in portions of the body; as in face, around eyes, around portions of the body itself.

8. In the nerve forces, - here, as we find indicated, there is a general reaction through the sympathetic system to those conditions of resentments, as to activities which have upset the body.

9. Then the rest of these become as an accentuated part of the disturbance, until physical conditions become a part of the general reactions to the system.

10. In making suggestions for corrective forces, - while there should be some applications, some conditions corrected, we find that much will depend upon the mental attitude of the body; as to that it purposes, desires and expects to do with its own life.

11. There are abilities indicated, especially as a reader, as in dramatic art or the like; also abilities in the direction of music, as a teaching force, or as combined with artistic developments in same. And these should be exercised in such measures or manners as to become a part of the activity.

12. And in the giving OUT of same, - as in the preparation of same for the giving out, - there will be a great deal of assistance lent to the better recuperative forces through the body.

13. First, then:

14. We would begin with taking small doses of Atomidine as a purifier and a cleanser for the glandular forces of the system. Take one minim (drop) in half a glass of water each morning, before the meal is eaten, for five days. Leave off five days, then take again five days. Continue taking it in this manner for four to five rounds of same.

15. Of course, keep in the open as much as possible. Arise rather early, and exercise in the open; not too strenuous, but sufficient for the better reactions through the system.

16. After the second five-day period of taking the Atomidine, begin with the mechanical manipulations as may be administered through the osteopathic applications; with special reference to those conditions for the upper portion of the lungs, the directing of the glandular forces through the throat, the thyroid, as well as in the areas from the 3rd and 4th cervical to the 9th dorsal, for the better drainages to be set up.

17. And begin with the preparations for the activities to give OUT, to minister to others, especially in the fields of music, or dramatic art, or the reading, - or especially for the aiding of children.

18. Thus we will bring better forces for this body.

19. Throughout this period the diet should consist more of the forces as in Vitamin B-1; such as in whole wheat cereal (crushed wheat, cooked a long time); as in the combination of wheat and barley (found in Maltex); as in steel cut oats; and plenty of carrot juice, plenty of lettuce, celery and beets. These vegetables especially should be taken daily, either in a raw salad or cooked, or the juices extracted in a Juicer and taken in small quantities.

20. Little of meat, save fish, fowl or lamb. Occasionally, for the strengthening of the body, take pure beef juice as a medicine; not as a drink or as a soup. When taken, this would be taken in a small quantity, - as a tablespoonful once or twice a week, but this sipped, - taking five to ten minutes to sip that quantity, see? With it there may be taken a whole wheat wafer. This will prove very strengthening.

21. Keep the eliminations well, though at times it may be necessary to take the high colonics to drain the system of the poisons as will be stimulated for elimination by the taking of the Atomidine for the glandular activity, and by the stimulation for normal impulses through the nervous system - in the mechanical (osteopathic) applications.

22. Doing these, with the exercise and the diet as outlined, we will bring the better forces for this body.

23. Ready for questions.

24. We are through for the present.

On waking, EC said he would know this girl if he saw her on the street; described her as fair-haired, red face, big nose - kind of red; sort of breaking out on face; puffy looking face, around eyes, etc.

R2. 1/15/40 Mother’s letter to EC:

Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Mr. Cayce:

I am enclosing clinical reports of my daughter’s case [See 2/22/40 wire requesting the return of the medical report and EC’s letter 2/23/40 saying he was returning it, Par. R12, R13 below] as requested by you.

These date back from the beginning of her disease though I have not brought up to recent date. Her disease has progressed so rapidly she is practically helpless at this time. Even her speech is hardly audible. Her sight, hearing, and brain seem the only evidences of the parts of her body not affected.

Do you conduct a hospital in connection with your diagnosis? If so, would you send me some literature giving information regarding cost of same.

I have been unable to procure Atomidine in our city. Am writing the manufacturer for some of the medicine at once.

I would appreciate hearing further from you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. […] …, Ga.

Dear Madam; Thank you for your airmail letter dated January 15, requesting 1/8 ounce Atomidine Liquid.

We indeed are sorry to learn that you are experiencing difficulty in obtaining our products in your locality. The difficulty has arisen through the jobbers and local druggists not caring to stock their shelves with cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and drugs for the past few months. This reluctance is due to Federal requirements governed by an Act of Congress which became effective January 1.

Under this Act, known as the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, all manufacturers must make drastic changes in their labeling of their products to meet the stringent requirements. Some products are even forbidden from sale. The purpose of the Act is for the ultimate good of the consumer.

No doubt, your physician or druggist can tell you in more detail regarding this Act.

We feel that this brief outline may assure you of our desire to make our products readily available to our clients.

We are freely permitted to sell our products however, technical requirements concerning our labeling have not yet been approved by the Federal Food, Drug Administration. Such approval will be forthcoming within the next few days. until such time, however, we must decline your request for Atomidine.

We regret the annoyance this must cause you and trust you will appreciate our position at this moment.

Very truly yours, Reginald S. Bisey [signed] ATOMIDINE COMPANY RSB/ak.

R4. 1/17/40 Mother’s letter to EC:

…, Ga.

Dear Mr. Cayce,

The enclosed letter is self explanatory.

Am writing you now to ask for suggestions regarding where or how I might purchase this atomidine. Also if you think it wise to begin the osteopathic treatments at once and not wait for the atomidine doses to be administered prior to the osteopathic treatments as your letter indicated.

My daughter is so ill I dislike to withhold any treatments that might be beneficial to her.

Hoping to hear at once from you. I am

Sincerely, Mrs. […]

R5. 1/19/40 EC’s letter to [2076]‘s Mother:

Dear Mrs […]

Yours of the 18th just to hand. Under the circumstances would begin the Osteopath treatments at once. Am having sent you from the local druggist a bottle of Atomidine, and would begin this at once also. Think this would be best.

Sincerely hoping for the best for Mrs. [2076].

Sincerely Edgar Cayce

R6. 1/20/40 Mother’s letter to EC:

My dear Mr. Cayce:

We have been able to procure a bottle of Atomidine in Birmingham, Ala.

We shall start the administration of it at once with my daughter - Mrs. [2076].

Thanking you again for your recent letter and suggestions. I am,

Sincerely, Mrs. […]

R7. 1/29/40 Father’s letter to EC:

Association For Research Virginia Beach, Va.

Gentlemen -

My Daughter Mrs. [2076] is being attended to by Dr. Alexander Dahl, Mortgage Guarantee Bldg - Atlanta - He enjoys a fine reputation & has worked for people that had contacted you -

Yours Very Truly Mr. […]

R8. 2/2/40 EC’s letter to [2076]‘s Father:

Dear Mr. […]

Thank you for yours of the 29th - and for the name of the Dr. attending your daughter. Should he desire confirmation from others of his school will be glad to furnish him the name of and address of as many as he would like. Would like for Dr. Dahl to make a list of questions to have asked regards your daughter’s condition if he would like to have such. In that way have often found greater success with such conditions.

Sincerely Edgar Cayce [signed]

R9. 2/15/40 Mother’s letter to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce,

Thank you for your letter under date of February 2nd in reply to Mr. […].

Dr. Dahl, being a very busy person finds it hard to write letters so has suggested that I keep in touch with you and ask you the following questions.

Do you think it wise to increase the dosage of atomidine at this time? How often would it seem advisable for her to have the high colonics and do you think more than two treatments per week from the osteopath a good idea?

Should you think it a good thing to have another reading any time in the near future we shall be glad to have you give one for my daughter.

Since her condition is of so many months standing and her state of health so impaired we do not look for a marked change for the better, in the very near future, but she has asked me to ask you, would it be possible for you to give her any idea when we might hope to see some improvement?

She finds it hard to keep her thoughts in an optimistic trend due to her many handicaps, and lately she has often given up to hysteria which we find hard to cope with. In the face of her many handicaps, I can hardly see how she could be otherwise.

Thanking you again for your cooperation. I am

Sincerely, Mrs. […]

R10. 2/16/40 EC’s letter to [2076]‘s Mother:

Dear Mrs. […]

Yours of the 15th just received. Will try and answer the questions, as best can in light of experience with the readings. Yes would increase the dosage of Atomidine say two drops - but give it at the intervals indicated still.

As to how often the High Colonics - depends on the amount of mucus is indicated as these are given. It is the purpose to get rid of the accumulation of Mucus - but don’t give so often as to cause irritation - be governed by conditions but this the best way to get rid of the Mucus.

Does the Osteopath ease her when he treats her then increase to 3 times each week.

Do you give the olive oil after the series of Oil Packs - be sure and do that - table spoon full or more - then the poisons will be eliminated with the use of the Colonic - and ease the tension - and get away from those periods of hysteria.

Am making the appointment for a check reading for Mrs. [2076] for the afternoon of the 26 - 3:30 to 4:30 E.S.T. That is 2:30 to 3:30 your time I believe. Would suggest you make a list of questions, Mrs. […] - also have the Dr. give you a list. Am anxious to see Mrs. [2076] get the results as so many others have gotten from such information.

Will include the question in next reading as to how soon to expect decided improvement.

Hoping to be of a service in HIS name

Sincerely Edgar Cayce [signed]

R11. 2/20/40 Mother’s letter to EC:

Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Mr. Cayce:

Thank you for your prompt reply to my letter under date of February 15. I am enclosing a check for $10.00 for another reading. The time that you mentioned in your letter is agreeable to us, Monday the 26th between 2:30 and 3:30. We will keep this hour as a quiet hour as before.

Pertaining to questions, there are a number which I would like to be enlightened about. My daughter wonders if there could be any suggestion that you could make pertaining to exercise for her hands, which are really helpless. Each morning we give her a mild exercise of about 45 minutes over the greater part of her body. Do you think this advisable? Her speech also grows weaker daily, which is the greatest concern to us. Have you any specific directions or suggestions that you could give us that might help this trouble? We are thinking that it might be possible for us to take her to Florida about the first of April. Would you think this advisable? We have heard that the sunshine and surf baths have benefited others who suffered from like conditions. She is anxious also to know if it might be possible for you to give her any idea when she might hope to see some improvement.

In your recent letter you asked me had we given her the oil packs and the internal doses of olive oil. Since your diagnosis and suggestions did not include anything of this nature, this is something that we have not done. If you will advise me just how this might be done for her we will supplement her other treatments with this. I am sure the answers to these questions will be very helpful to us. Dr. Dahl, her osteopath, feels that I will ask you all things necessary, and for that reason he has not communicated with you.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Yours very truly, Mrs. […]
